    Anna and FraLuchi stayed with us years ago. When her husband got too long-winded and 'splainy,' Anna would stand behind his chair, waving her hands just like he waved his, and making faces! They were quite a pair. Gracious and full of stories...

    I think that ship sailed long ago. Personally I'm not much concerned about the 'authenticity' of a particular route. My own understanding of pilgrimage is focussed much more on the destination than the route. So for me any route which leads a...

    Such sad news to log on to here. Anna and Fraluchi were such a huge part of this community when I first started researching all things Camino. Their legacy will live on here with our search engine, their sharing will continue. Rest in Peace!

    Hi all! I see I started this thread in 2018 and someone has resurrected it from the archives. I am here to tell you that after nearly six years I have now joined the ranks of the 70+ crowd. I leave in 11 days for the Sanabres and I feel very...
